And, of course, I'm looking for transcriptions of any Cynthia McQuillin

interested in co-written songs UNLESS it seems likely I can get
permission from all of the co-writers.

To help people quickly eliminate large chunks of songs, it might help
if you gave a list of the songbooks and tapes/CDs you have - or if you
are confident you have ALL the authorized songbooks and tapes/CDs you
could just mention that. Or that you have all the "All Cindy" stuff
but aren't sure of con-specific compilation albums, or whatever the
situation is with regard to commercially produced items.

Similarly, if you have info about what cons might have had Cindy
Concerts, that might assist a search by finding a lot of Cindy
Material in one place (plus open filks at those cons, of course). Or
knowledge of which cons she attended without doing a concert, where
"open filk" recordings still might produce something. Being able to
exclude cons that she didn't attend would narrow the field.

Hmmm... my understanding from a while back was that on co-written
songs, ANY of the joint owners of the copyright could give permission
for the song to be used. If so, you wouldn't legally need the
permission from the others. Of course, maybe I've gotten that wrong -
or maybe it's right, but you are working to A Higher Standard rather
than just The Minimum Requirement To Be Legal.

I've asked the UK filkers to check for any tapes of her performances at FourPlay,
where she and Dr Jane were guests.

I have a copy of Midlife Crisis - do you just want people to type up the lyrics?
(or whatever they can make out of those lyrics)

Yes, please.
That would be wonderful.

I've tried doing this with "Not Forgotten" and have decided I don't
trust myself to make out the words well enough to transcribe them
faithfully. (Well, I did a lot better transcribing with "Free Fall.")

I own (or have been loaned) the following Songbooks
================================================
Bedlam Cats
Crystal Memories & Crystal Visions
Dark Moon Circle
Dreams of Fortune
Melody Pirates
Moon Shadows
Mystic Lady
Singer in the Shadow
Uncharted Stars
Witch's Dance

all the Kanteles

the three Kushyon Flyte House songbooks

I have looked over Mary Creasey's run of all the Pfnens, but need to
scan (for proofreading)
Pfnen #29's -- Ring Song for Frodo
Pfnen #30's -- Fool to Feed the Drive
and I forgot to note down the provenance of "ConChord's Coming" but I
suspect it's in a 1982 or early 1983 Pfnen.
If anyone can send me jpgs or pdfs of these, I would be grateful.

I've got the following anthology songbooks
========================================
Bayfilk I
Conterpoint Too (1996)
The Golden Gait Filkbook
Minus Ten and Counting
Sing Me Tomorrow (Consonance 2006)
Westerfilk I & II
A Wolfrider's Reflections

And we looked through a numer of ConChord songbooks and At the Cockpits.
And the Consonance songbooks I edited.

Sorry, I can't help on that.

I also have transcriptions of three songs that were apparently sung by
Cynthia that aren't credited to her -- at least not by the transcribers'
titles. Does anyone recognize any of these (and they may not have been
written by Cynthia)?

Here's the first verses:

FAREWELL (?)
Cindy McQuillin?, transcribed by Lila Holbrook and Lois Welling, with
thanks to Harold Stein

Oh, fare ye well, my bonny bairn,
More than a lover, you are my child.
You were the pride of every man
Who stood to your command
And I savored you a while.

---------------------------------------------

THE PRICE YOU PAID (?)
by Cynthia McQuillin?, transcribed by Lila Holbrook and Lois Welling,
with thanks to Harold Stein

The first time you saw me, love,
I lay so still beneath the sky,
Lulled by gentle starlight song
And sorely hurt, I prayed to die.
The last surviving elven son
You could not save my mortal life
Still you took me to your home
And guarded me through all that night.

-----------------------------------------------------

WEIRD SISTERS (?)
by Cynthia McQuillin?, transcribed by Lila Holbrook and Lois Welling,
with thanks to Harold Stein
a version of this is found on the Web at
https://gate.eveonline.com/Profile/nest%20freemark but not credited to
anyone


You could trace our course through the Milky Way
By our trail of thundering light (a webpage has this as
"by our wak")
But they called us home as we heeled our keel
Around Ursa Minor's bight.

Yes, that's my understanding too.
But "co-written" for a Cynthia McQuillin song usually means
a) each person wrote a separate verse, and so has an individual
copyright (as with "Were-Wolf's Lament"
or
b) another person wrote the lyrics, and Cindy wrote the melody

There's also a few songs for which several people are credited, and I'm
not sure who to credit.

I've got a list of the co-written songs, and I'm hoping someone will
help me contact co-writers and get permission, but it may not be
possible. (Yes, I'm into organization and lists when doing a project
this big.)

--Lee

"The Basilisk" recorded on Time Winds Tavern, by Kathy Mar and Cynthia
McQuillin
I don't know if the words are all Kathy's or co-written., or whether
Cindy just
did the melody.
"Call The Navigator," recorded on Where No Man, by Heather Sanders &
Cynthia McQuillin
I don't know who did what.
"Darkside Anthem" in Consonance: The Filk Rolls In by Terri King /
Cynthia McQuillin
I suspect the slash means Cindy only did the music.
"The Dimover National Anthem," printed in Starstone #4, 1980, by Phil
and Jo Wayne and
Cindy McQuillin,,
"Dreamer" in Free Fall & Other Delights, by Deborah Sanders & Cynthia
McQuillin
"Heartsong," recorded on Where No Man, by Eustance & Cynthia McQuillin
I don't know who wrote what
"Incubus Rock" in Snow Magic, by Karen Willson / Cynthia McQuillin
I suspect the slash means Cindy only did the music.
"It Was Late" in Bayfilk 3, by Cynthia McQuillin, Mary Ellen Wessels,
Joey Shoji
Can someone send me contact info for MEW and Joey?
"Moon Runner," in Crystal Memories, lyrics Phillip Wayne, Cynthia
McQuillin, and Jana
Steward, music Phillip Wayne
"Open Hailing Frequencies," recorded on Song of the Stars and Where No
Man, by Debra F.
Sanders & Cynthia McQuillin. I don't know who did what.
"The Princess's Future," recorded on Other Times, Other Places , by
Mercedes Lackey &
Cynthia McQuillin. I suspect that Cindy just did the music on this.
"Security Strike" recorded on Where No Man, by Cecilia Eng, Andrew
Nesbitt, & Cynthia
McQuillin
"Sun Of Vulcan," recorded on Where No Man, by Debra F. Sanders & Cynthia
McQuillin
I don't know who did what.

"Werewolf's Lament" in The Philk Fee-Nom-Ee-Non #17 & #25, Copyright
1982 Ben
Koslover verses 1-3 and chorus & verse 4 Cynthia McQuillin, // verse 5
Jane
Mailander, verse 6 Mistie Joyce, verse 7 Walter K. Willis; verse 8
Cindy McQuillin.
I don't think that just publishing the chorus and verses 4 & 8 would be
fun.
"Wurm" -- Other Times, Other Places -- by Mercedes Lackey & Cynthia
McQuillin
I suspect that Cindy just did the music on this.

And there is a printed version in the Bayfilk 3 Songbook with the same
title ("It Was Late"), right up front.

Yes, I've got that songbook.

But I want Joey's permission to reprint that song, because I also need
his permission for doing the arranements of the sheet music of four of
Cindy's songs.

Mary Ellen Wessels gave her permission contingent on Joey giving his.

In MELODY PIRATES, the title has four words.

It appeared in Uncharted Stars.
It stars "Once I was a sailor out beyond the stars..."
and it ends "But now I have no memory. Is this how it ends?"

I've emailed it to you.
>

These are two different songs.

"Overflowin' Catbox Blues" is by Dr. Jane (and can be found in Dr.
Jane's Songs, all the songs that Dr. Jim and I could dig up).

"Overflowin' Cathouse" Blues was written by Cindy and appeared in Golden
Gait Songbook (published by Lynn Gold and me). I've still got copies of
this. This song starts:

First I must mention too much attention,
I wish you'd just fade away. (You're awful)
You fondle and pet me until you can't get me,
But it's only an hour today. (You ask me)

We've now gotten copies of these and proofread them.
"ConChord's coming" was in a ConChord progress report.

And Mary Ellen Wessels and Joey Shoji have okayed reprinting "It Was Late."

Slowly but surely, we make progress.

I started printing Xeno #150 today.
Yes, it's the August issue, but I want it ready for Westercon.

I thought this was by Jordin Kare and it set off a long string of other
parodies.

According to Westerfilk 2 (or at least my transcription of its
information in the Filk Book Index), it is by Jordin.

"Fuel to Feed the Drive" was the original song by Cynthia McQuillin.
Jordin wrote a parody of it (which he's allowing us to reprint in this
collection) caled "Fool to Feed the Drive."
The Pfnen #30 song by Cindy was "*Some* Fool to Feed the Drive" (and
starts out "a hundred parsnips out, on a con room luncheon plate").
